A group of 10- and 11-year-olds at a Staten Island, New York, elementary school for autistic children moved singer Jennifer Lopez so much with their appreciation for her that she made their graduation day special.
Jennifer Lopez surprised children at P.S. 37, a school for autistic children in Staten Island Tuesday by dropping by to attend their graduation day. Not only did J. Lo show up to cheer the children on but she also performed for her young admirers.
The way Lopez came to visit the school was that teacher Kathy Amati showed them the video for Lopez’s single “Let’s Get Loud,” reports the Associated Press.
The youngsters were so impressed with the video that they wanted to watch it every day and even learned the lyrics and dance moves from the video.
Amati suggested that they write to Lopez how much they appreciate her video and the 38-year-old singer/actress was apparently so impressed that she decided to meet them in person.
The group of kids listened to their favorite song live when Lopez performed Tuesday especially for them.
The Bronx-born Lopez must be feeling as maternal as ever considering that she and husband Marc Anthony welcomed twin babies earlier this year. Emmie and Max, born Feb. 22 in Long Island, New York, are the couple’s first children. Anthony has three other children from previous relationships.
The couple, who have been married since 2004, kept the pregnancy a secret for a while, or at least they tried considering the intense speculation going on at the time, when Lopez and Anthony had embarked on their joint tour and her belly was a constant subject of analysis and discussion.
Upon having their babies, manager Simon Fields said in a statement that the couple was “delighted, thrilled and over the moon.”
Being “over the moon” seems to have changed Lopez’s renowned diva pretentiousness since she performed such a low-key concert for little kids.
